It is card 217 of 234 in Pulsing Aura, printed at Shiny, and it turns up in the Pulsing Aura pack. 10 cards in the expansion are rarer than this one. Opening for it means about 1,285 packs to be reasonably sure of one, which at 2 free packs a day is 1.8 years. The art is by Souichirou Gunjima, who has 93 other cards in the game.

Because of this Pokémon’s ability to detect danger, people mistook Absol as a bringer of doom.
